[quote=Anonymous]My understanding is that it's both--ratings followed by a brief narrative. Our MS teachers said they get literally 100+ requests for recommendations. If you submit early, you'll get more of their attention and a more thoughtful narrative. The students who don't submit until the deadline get much more perfunctory narratives because the teachers are overwhelmed. Ordinarily lottery results aren't affected by when you submit, but for selective schools, the quality of the application can be affected. Students should tell the teachers as soon as possible that they will be requesting recommendations from them. Also interesting that McKinley is being more specific about who should be providing the recommendations. My kid had his 7th grade math teacher do his rec.[/quote]
